Sectioned-RecyclerView | Simple Android library | RecyclerView library

I solved this by importing only the Google services libraries that I needed instead of the whole package, so instead of doing this:

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:11.4.2'

I import each library separately. Apparently it was loading too many libraries at the same time and it caused some weird issues to pop up.

sometimes i just copy the gradle information from last project that worked and use it for new project, sometimes the lastest buildToolVersion will fail, try to reduce the version. Some other stupid solutions but sometimes work like a charm: check the internet, change android studio to offline work mode, keep clicking try again until the world end

1. Check if you are working offline.

   File > Settings > Write "offline" on the search bar > Gradle > uncheck "offline work".

2. Use the keyword "implementation" instead of "compile". Compile is deprecated and will be abandoned by the end of 2018. This is a long shot, but something might have changed since the last Android Studio update.

3. Explicitly add com.android.support:support-core-ui:27.1.1 to your dependencies.

Let me know if it helped.

Good luck.

Update:

If you go to

https://repo.jfrog.org/artifactory/libs-release-bintray/com/android/support/support-core-ui/27.1.1/

You'll find out that your *.jar file is not there.

There are a couple others, though:

• support-core-ui-27.1.1-sources.jar
• support-core-ui-27.1.1.aar
• support-core-ui-27.1.1.pom

You can use the *.aar file instead.

You're right that reducing the number of third party libraries you use will reduce the dex count, but unfortunately this won't be a quick fix. This will involve looking through your app and trying to figure out which libraries you might not need, or can roll your own solution for. For example (though this doesn't apply to you), Google's Guava library contains a lot of handy utility functions, but is a very heavy library as it's so broad in scope.

Have a look at the libraries you're using in more detail, and see if there's stripped-down versions available containing only what you need. Also take a look at what your mobicomkitui project is using, as all the dependencies of that library project will also be compiled into your app.

Finally problem is solved. Seems like its a bug google resolved this issue in updated version.

Use play Service Version 11.0.1

In project level gradle use

classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.1.0'

I had the same error and was able to get my project to build by adding this at the bottom of my gradle file

I fixed this with multiple item types.
